[01:14] schestowitz In the UK we still can (not easily) get service at a branch and we don't use "apps", let alone a "phone". Based on 3 banks anyway.... for now...

[01:20] schestowitz I myself find IPFS to be a resource pig. My node at home suffered churn (killed the storage devices within less than a year time after time; used up b/w to the point other users could barely do anything). [01:20] schestowitz Since last server reboot our IPFS has used up like 1 TB of b/w. It was rebooted just over a month ago. There must be more efficient ways.

    Updated Debian 11: 11.7 released
    [09:49] schestowitz
    [09:49] schestowitz

    The Debian project is pleased to announce the seventh update of its stable distribution Debian 11 (codename "bullseye"). This point release mainly adds corrections for security issues, along with a few adjustments for serious problems. Security advisories have already been published separately and are referenced where available.

    [09:49] schestowitz

    Please note that the point release does not constitute a new version of Debian 11 but only updates some of the packages included. There is no need to throw away old "bullseye" media. After installation, packages can be upgraded to the current versions using an up-to-date Debian mirror.

    Debian 11.7 Bullseye Released with 102 Security Updates and 92 Bug Fixes
    [09:49] schestowitz
    [09:49] schestowitz

    The Debian Project announced today the release and general availability of Debian 11.7 as the seventh ISO update to the latest Debian GNU/Linux 11 Bullseye operating system series.

    [09:49] schestowitz

    Debian 11.7 is here almost four and a half months after Debian 11.6 to provide those who want to deploy the Debian GNU/Linux 11 Bullseye operating system series on new computers with up-to-date installation media so you wont have to download hundreds of updated from the repositories after the installation.

    Amnesty International Australia Suffered a Data Breach in December, but Says Everything is Now Fine

    [11:40] schestowitz

    On late Friday, Amnesty International Australia sent an email to supporters informing them their data may be at risk due to anomalous activity detected in its IT environment.

    [11:40] schestowitz

    While the email went out very late in the day/week, it also went out a very long time after the activity was found. The email, sighted by Gizmodo Australia, says the activity was detected late last year.
